INSTRUCTIONAL RATIONALE:
Many English Language Learners (ELL) have difficulty pronouncing the two English TH sounds, sometimes referred to as "thy" and "thigh".
The most common error is to pronounce TH either as "d" or "t".
To use the example of "thy" and "thigh", if mis-pronounced, these words might sound like "die" or "tie"
